*Sculpteurs au Moyen Age* examines the sculptors and carved capitals of the Romanesque period, focusing on the visual and symbolic language of medieval church architecture. The book considers how artisans shaped biblical narratives, moral themes, and fantastical imagery into stone, transforming structural elements into expressive works of art. Its attention to relief sculpture, architectural ornament, and iconographic meaning makes it a useful resource for readers interested in medieval visual culture, French sculpture, and the relationship between art and sacred space. The work presents Romanesque sculpture as both a craft tradition and a complex symbolic system embedded in the buildings of the Middle Ages.
